    I actually love to use these with my Haakaa. I will use these to store my milk collected from letdown on the opposite breast until I have enough to put in a storage bag for the freezer. Jun 17, 2021

  • Love these to fridge store smaller amounts for the pitcher method. May 18, 2021

  • These are small! Keep that in mind. May 01, 2021

  • Used these a lot in the first months when I wasn't producing much milk and feedings were frequent. We would feed baby directly from these after heating in warm water. Mar 08, 2021

  • These are perfect for just starting to breastfeed! We were sent home syringe feeding our lo and these were wonderful for storing the little bit of milk I was producing! Mar 04, 2021

    • Manahawkin, New Jersey

    Don’t bother just get the pouches Feb 20, 2021

  • Personally, I loved these but I didn't have much of a supply. I could see how these would be a problem for someone with a lot of supply as once or twice I over filled these Feb 10, 2021

  • Got a lot of these from the hospital or I would have no idea, worked great for the beginning Jan 29, 2021

  • use this at first months they have thinner structure and will encourage you when you see the milk is getting higher. Dec 31, 2020

  • Perfect for starting out when your building your newborn supply. Hospital actually gave me a bunch of these to store my milk while baby girl was in the nicu. Dec 27, 2020

    perfect for the beginning of breastfeeding holds just the right amount of milk. Also great for feeding baby Dec 22, 2020

    Why weeLove Milkflow Lactation Cookies:

    In case you need a valid excuse to eat cookies, here’s a really good one: boosting milk supply. Nursing moms need to fuel their bodies to keep up with the demands of milk production and new parenthood. (If you’ve been wearing the same pants for three days—we get it, girl!) While lactation teas, capsules and powders aren’t for everybody, cookies most certainly are.

    Milkflow™ from UpSpring created the first ever lactation cookies made with the dream team of ingredients: Fenugreek and Blessed Thistle. These two essentials work together to help naturally promote breast milk supply in those early days, during your baby’s growth spurts (when you’re glued to the glider for feedings!), and pumping sessions.

    Available in Oatmeal Raisin and Double Chocolate Chip, cookies are non-GMO and made in the USA with all natural ingredients. These tasty treats come in packs of two—perfect for tossing in your diaper bag for a healthy snack on the go. Each box comes with 10 packs (20 cookies total), so you’ll be able to keep your milk production going strong while keeping “Hangry Mom Running Errands” at bay. It’s a win-win.

    Moms are all about multi-tasking (just ask anyone who can fold laundry, while doing an Amazon Prime order, while playing peek-a-boo with the baby.) Luckily, here's a way to get multiple things done at once, with a lot less juggling...

    UpSpring Milkflow Coffee Pods give nursing women a much-needed caffeine fix—along with milk-boosting duo fenugreek and blessed thistle—in just one cup of joe. A lactation supplement in easy-to-brew coffee? Yes, please!

    Compatible with most Keurig K-Cup coffee makers, each pod serves 55mg of caffeine and 450mg of Fenugreek to help establish or increase a healthy milk supply (hello, growth spurts!). All ingredients are natural, gluten-free, and non-GMO. And don't worry—the pods themselves are made with mother (earth) in mind, too. They're 100% compostable, 100% plant-based, and BPA-free.

    Ready to pop in a pod and get back to that master multi-tasking? Because there's a diaper bag to be packed + car keys to be found.

    • Kansas City , Missouri

    These came in handy to freeze smaller quantities of milk for my preemie. I love that they hook up directly to the pump. Neutral rating due to price. Nov 19, 2019

  • Perfect for collecting milk and storing in the fridge before freezing! Jul 24, 2019

  • These are perfect size for newborns, and pumping a few ounces untill your milk supply increases. Feb 17, 2019

  • I didn't love these. I prefer to freeze milk in bags. May 08, 2018

  • These work well for the early days of pumping, but they really don’t hold very much. It’s better just to go with the 5oz storage bottles. Feb 14, 2018

  • Such small containers weren't what we needed Dec 26, 2017

  • Skip these teeny bottles and go for the 5 ounce ones. As your milk supply comes in these will be obsolete quickly. Dec 07, 2017

  • Must have if you want to build a freezer stash, great quality! Nov 06, 2017

  • Great at first but totally unnecessary. I suggest getting the 5oz or 8pz bottles and freezing the bags. I only used these 2oz bottles for like 2 weeks and Then i produced too much milk for these. Oct 18, 2017

  • worked great for pumping and storing for on the go. Sep 15, 2017

  • Work perfect for newborns! Sep 03, 2017

    • Linda K.

    • Camp lejeune, North Carolina

    Perfect for the small amounts of milk youll be producing the first few days after giving birth, but then youll need the bigger bottles for sure ! Aug 24, 2017

    • Jenn K.

    • Colorado Springs , Colorado

    Loved for early breastfeeding pumping sessions (2.5oz) and perfect for for formula travel afterwards. Easy to use and clean. Medela nipple ring fits for quick pump and feed. Jun 23, 2017

    • Mary H.

    • Hurricane , West Virginia

    I love these! They make pumping at work super quick. I use these when I pump every two hours. I love the kids. Jun 18, 2017

  • They store so easily. I plan on getting a few more when baby number two arrives. May 09, 2017

  • Does a great job for storage of milk, never had any issues and have been using mine for almost a year! Apr 24, 2017

    • Vicki H.

    • Lindenhurst , New York

    Didn't really need to use them, preferred bags Jan 25, 2017

  • Love all the storage stuff for medela. Dec 27, 2016

  • I use this for measuring out exact amounts of breastmilk and formula for my baby... I'm a nurse so I like knowing exactly how much she's getting. Dec 13, 2016

  • Perfect size for storing breastmilk. attaches easily to my pump and easily to the medela bottle nipples. Less dishes! Dec 02, 2016

  • Great for storing smaller amounts without having to transfer to a bag! Oct 16, 2016

  • These little bottles only hold 2 oz each. I normally get 4-5 oz per pump session. They also don't fit the pump. Could have saved money if I knew that ahead of time. Oct 05, 2016

  • I love that many different brand nipples fit this bottle, Aug 25, 2016

  • I loved these for storing my milk and taking it on the go in my little freezer bag. Aug 23, 2016

  • Fits right onto my pump and then can go right into the fridge or freezer. Fantastic value! Aug 02, 2016

  • The idea is there but they only hold 2 ounces, you'll need to freeze more than that at a time. Jul 28, 2016

    • Katie S.

    • Massapequa Park, New York

    These were great to use in the first month while building my supply but after the first month I could not use these to pump into anymore. I had to yell for my husband to bring me another one. Jul 26, 2016

  • I was given these by a friend and they were fantastic! Easy to read. May 01, 2016

    • laura c.

    • Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

    Makes pouring milk much easier Apr 30, 2016

  • I use these to transport milk home from work and for short-term storage. Feb 13, 2016

  • Great for pumping small amounts of milk. Jan 31, 2016

    • Dana C.

    • Wilkesboro, North Carolina

    Great for storing small amounts, especially in the beginning while establishing supply. Also great for holding small snacks in the diaper bag! Jan 21, 2016

  • I loved these for quick storage Jul 17, 2015

    • Sari L.

    • United States of America

    Depending on your supply, these are great for those early days of pumping. Better for morale to fill this than see the tiny bit in the 5oz bottles! Jan 04, 2015

    • Anne K.

    • Brooklyn, New York

    Pro Tip: These are perfect for pre-measuring and saving three scoops of formula. We had 40+ 'formula tubes' on hand and would use them at home and on the go, made making bottles a .5 second job. Dec 29, 2014

  • Perfect size to avoid wasteful defrosting and attach to pump for easy fill Sep 29, 2014

    • Kali P.

    • Everett, Washington

    Loved in the beginning when I wasn't making a whole lot of milk, but not so much later because they don't hold much liquid. Sep 26, 2014

  • Great for newborns that don't eat much at a time Sep 16, 2014

  • I like these bc they are convenient for when they are newborns & only eat 2 oz's at a time you don't have to defrost a whole bag for 2 ozs but if you happen to drop them the bottom will break & crack Aug 28, 2014
